Darlene and Clay had a nice two-week vacation in the States with family. It included home movies with Clay's siblings and parents, visting our home church, a birthday dinner for Darlene, babysitting our granddaughters Kendra (2 years) and Rivka (1 month), lawnmower repair, sorting and warehousing our goods in storage, moving our youngest son back into college, so it was a busy time. But we topped off our vacation with a half-day in downtown London.

On return, we've been busy setting up Darlene to take over the bookkeeping for 12 church sites and projects, as well as Clay's preparations to teach next week, hosting various team functions, and helping some teammates get ready to leave the field. But we've had time to enjoy some strolls and concerts in the marvellous summer weather of Odessa! Now, back to work!
